One Less Set Of Footsteps - Crystal Gayle

We been running away from

Something we both know

We’ve long run out of things to say

And I think I better go

So don’t be getting excited

When you hear that slammin' door

'Cause there’ll be one less set of footsteps

On your floor in the mornin'

And we’ve been hidin' from somethin'

That should have never gone this far

But after all it’s what we’ve done

That makes us what we are

And you’ve been talkin' in silence

But if it’s silence you adore

There’ll be one less set of footsteps

On your floor in the mornin'

Well, there’ll be one less set of footsteps on your floor

One less girl to walk in

One less pair of jeans upon your door

One less voice a-talkin'

But tomorrow’s a dream away

Today has turned to dust

Your silver tongue has turned to clay

And your golden rule to rust

If that’s the way that you want it

That’s the way I want it more

Well, there’ll be one less set of footsteps

On your floor in the mornin'

Well, there’ll be one less set of footsteps on your floor

One less girl to walk in

One less pair of jeans upon your door

One less voice a-talkin'

But tomorrow’s a dream away

Today has turned to dust

Your silver tongue has turned to clay

And your golden rule to rust

If that’s the way that you want it

That’s the way I want it more

Well, there’ll be one less set of footsteps

On your floor in the mornin'

Well, there’ll be one less set of footsteps

On your floor in the mornin'
